Painful Mispelling on E-Bay...
 
You've got to see the spelling on this. Krang, I sympathize.

*Shudder* Damn no good non Tmnters!!!! :x

Kameko 01-28-2003 06:12 PM

I also just found one that spelled Mikey's name "Michael Angelo." :dead:

Karpo_007 01-28-2003 06:15 PM

LOL :lol: Leon Ardo, and Dona Tello are probably next...

That Matt Guy 01-28-2003 06:16 PM

Sometimes they label Splinter as "Rat Man" :D

Kameko 01-28-2003 06:20 PM

Oh...kay.... I know there were some really weird action figures, but... has anyone ever heard of THESE??

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...category=16474

I can picture it now:

L: "Beam me up, Mikey."
-or-
R: "Damn it, Leo, I'm a doctor, not a ninja!"

:lol:

Karpo_007 01-28-2003 06:44 PM

Yeah I have heard of those... Pretty weird concept if you ask me
.

Kameko 01-28-2003 07:07 PM

I want to know what possessed them to put MIKEY as the engineer, and RAPHAEL as the doctor.

Aw yes, back when Playmates was making virtually every stomach churning TMNT variant you could think of, milking the licence for every last drop. For every cool TMNT toy, new TMNT line and Simpsons figures there are always these doozys.

hehe, yeah i saw all those you people were talking about, as some point or another. i saw a shredder referred to as "ninja man" hehe. the person actually claimed it must be really rare b/c they had never seen it before. talk about someone who has never looked hehe

This is such an abomination of TMNT! How could ANYBODY make the mistake of spelling "Krang" as "Craing"? I could spell it correctly even when I was 5 years old!

HorseTechie 01-30-2003 12:03 PM

Yeah.. I've heard of these before. really funky toy line if you aske me! :lol: (and people thought the concept of Jedi Turtles was bad)

Errr... I never noticed that before, but damn, that is scary to imagine! I guess they have to have Don be Spock!

heretic888 01-30-2003 12:04 PM

hmmmm
 
they made them that way because of the turtles' personalities not their occupations.

Kameko 01-30-2003 02:10 PM

Still, anyone would have to be nuts to let Raph tend thier wounds.... :goofygri: And I don't trust Mikey to be able to keep a microwave running, let alone a starship. :dead:

heretic888 01-30-2003 02:53 PM

well
 
The comment about Raph is more or less accurate, but Mike is much smarter than most people acknowledge (excluding his pre-red sky cartoon and next mutation versions).

They made them that way because of the turtles' personalities.

Leo is the bold leader.

Raph is the cynical, sneering, aggressive one.

Don is the passive, scientific, withdrawn one.

Mike is the relaxed, good natured one with a sense of humor.

Their personalities are almost a perfect fit.

The Master Foot Soldier 01-30-2003 02:54 PM

On a TMNT fan website (I don't remember the URL) they spelled Raphaels name as Ralph. This wasn't a common typo, everywhere where he meant to say Raphael he spelled it as Ralph. I don't know how someone who is a big enough fan to make a website cannot spell a name right.

Hmmm... Heh, you've got a good point there.

Leo=Kirk
Raph=Bones
Don=Spock
Mike=Scotty

That actually fits really well, now that I think about it. :D Although I can't really picture Leo as a womanizer... :lol:

That Matt Guy 01-30-2003 03:29 PM

Leo=Luke
Raph=Han
Mikey=Chewbacca
Don=C3PO

Reznorite420 01-31-2003 08:31 PM

Leo = Ray Stanz
Don = Egon Spengler
Raph = Winston Zeddmore
Mike = Peter Venkman

Jephael 01-31-2003 08:59 PM

Here's my own TMNT/Ghostbuster association which is basically set to the cartoon versions of both teams -

Leonardo = Egon
Donatello = Venkman
Michaelangelo = Ray
Raphael = Winston

Machias Banshee 02-01-2003 01:01 AM

Heh, i saw the TVshow comparison, and couldnt help myself... :D


For those of you who've watched Bonanza... :D


Splinter =Ben Cartwright
Leo = Adam
Raph= Candy
Don =Hoss
Mike= Lil Joe


*Melts at the sight of Ben Cartwright....* :goofygri:

I'm sorry, but I think mine is more accurate.

Ray is not too scientific, but he's not uneducated either, so that makes him Leo.

Egon is the scientific nerd of the group, so Don it is.

Winston is sorta hot-headed, but then again so is Peter, so it was a tough choice in terms of personality to choose which one would be Peter and Winston. I had to make the decision that I did because to me Venkman just fit Mike more than Raph because he was the least insightful of the bunch, just as Mike was in TMNT.

Jephael 02-01-2003 02:33 PM

I always saw Ray as the silly type just like Mike, and Egon reminded me more of Leo with how anal retentive they both were.

PWDESAI 02-01-2003 04:07 PM

do you have ray mixed up with peter jephael? I have to agree with Rez on this one. :)

Jephael 02-01-2003 04:27 PM

Nope, Ray had his moments in the cartoon.
